Look inside
A fun-filled collection of 5-minute short stories in Spanish and English for kids! A bilingual book for young language learners.

Follow Cali the Capybara and other colorful characters as they navigate unexpected adventures, all while learning Spanish! Whether you’re looking to support your child’s bilingual education or are looking for bedtime stories to bond and read alongside them, Cali's Fun Bilingual Tales will make learning and practicing Spanish fun.

What’s more, since stories are presented in both languages, this storybook is great for Spanish speakers who want to practice their English, too!

This bilingual story collection features:

  • 15 entertaining stories centered around important vocabulary themes like school, home, work, travel, and more!
  • Side-by-side Spanish and English text so children can read the stories in only one language or in both, and even test themselves by covering up one side of the page.
  • Keywords at the beginning of every story alongside their English translation and phonetic pronunciation, so kids can practice before they begin.
  • Vibrant, full-color illustrations for every story that bring the friendly animal characters to life.
  • Perfect for bedtime, story time, or anytime! These easy-to-read short stories help kids practice Spanish (or English!) for just five minutes every day.
